Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1. 1

   Dice the roma tomatoes into small, uniform pieces and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.

   Aproximativ 5 min.

   Nota bucătarului: For best results, use firm, ripe tomatoes.

2. 2

   Finely dice the white onion and jalapeño, and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes. If you prefer less heat, remove the seeds and white membrane from the jalapeño.

   Aproximativ 5 min.

   Nota bucătarului: Wear gloves when handling jalapeños to avoid skin irritation.

3. 3

   Chop the fresh cilantro and add it to the mixture.

   Aproximativ 2 min.

4. 4

   Squeeze the juice from the lime directly over the ingredients in the bowl. Add the salt.

   Aproximativ 1 min.

   Nota bucătarului: Roll the lime on a cutting board before cutting to extract more juice.

5. 5

   Gently stir all the ingredients together until well combined.

   Aproximativ 1 min.

6. 6

   Let the Pico de Gallo rest for at least 10 minutes in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld.

   Aproximativ 10 min.

   Nota bucătarului: A longer rest time, up to 30 minutes, will enhance the flavors even more.
